Avalanche

Small (less then size 1) skier caused slide in shoot above aqua duck in current creek on berthoud pass. The slide was caused by large amounts sluff that forced the skier too lose balance and push snow down the bowl. The snow was the consistency of marbles but never barried skier. snow was heavy and wet probably due to high temperatures in the last week with only about 8 inches of coverage on loose ground.
